Our daʿwah and our ʿaqīdah is more beloved to us than our own selves, our wealth and our offspring. So we are not prepared to part with it for gold, nor silver. We say this so that no one may have hope in buying out our daʿwah, nor should he think that it is possible for him to purchase it from us for dīnār or dirḥam. Since the politicians already know this about us, so they have despaired of buying it from us with granted positions or wealth.
